Launch Access, Pricing, and Future Paid Plans

Artistek is currently free to join during our launch period. No subscription is required at this time for basic account creation.

However, Artistek is not free forever by default. Current free access is part of our launch, beta, early access, introductory, or promotional period and may change as the platform grows.

Artistek currently charges a platform fee when a paid booking is completed through the platform. In the future, Artistek may introduce paid subscriptions, annual plans, monthly plans, premium tools, feature limits, account tiers, professional plans, promotional tools, analytics, roster tools, submission tools, venue tools, commerce tools, or other paid services.

By creating or using an Artistek account, you understand and agree that current free access does not guarantee free access in the future. Pricing, fees, plans, features, account access, and subscription options may change over time.

Fan Tips

Fans may send optional tips through Artistek.live. Tips may be attributed to a specific gig or sent from an artist profile.

Tips processed through Artistek may be subject to a platform service fee. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable flow, the current structure is 5% of the tip amount plus $0.30 per tip. Applicable fees and net amounts appear in artist earnings records and payout flows. See our Terms of Service (Section 4) for full fee terms and how fees may change.

Before You Are Charged

Artistek will not charge you for a future subscription unless you choose a paid plan and authorize payment through the applicable payment flow. If Artistek introduces automatic renewals, trial-to-paid plans, annual plans, monthly subscriptions, or other recurring billing options, the price, billing period, renewal terms, cancellation method, and included features will be disclosed before purchase.

What Artistek Is

Artistek is regional live music infrastructure that connects artists and bands, venues, promoters and agencies, fans, and merch. It provides operational tools for discovery, booking, calendars, contracts, escrow-backed payments, submissions, rosters, and event operations. Artistek is not a party to bookings made between users, it provides the platform that helps them happen.

Your Account and Responsibilities

You must be at least 18 and provide accurate information. You are responsible for your account, your content, and the bookings and communications you make through the platform.

All payments for bookings arranged through Artistek must be completed through the platform. Arranging payments off-platform to avoid fees violates our Terms of Service and may result in suspension or removal.

Disputes and Accessibility

Disputes with Artistek are governed by our Terms of Service, including Section 12 (binding individual arbitration, class action waiver, and 30-day opt-out) and Section 13 (accessibility commitment, including for California residents). The User Agreement does not replace those Terms.
